Thyme allows you to track time spent on tasks. The goal is to keep a list of things you worked on or spent doing and how long that task took to complete.

You can also use Thyme to track the amount of time you spend working for your clients. It's all about keeping a logbook of time you want to remember later.

How to add time to your timesheet

Adding time to your log has been designed to be as simple as possible. You can select the date of when the task was done, select a start and end time. Add a note description to remind yourself what you spent that time on and hit the big "plus" button.

You can also press the big "play" button to start tracking your time. The date and start time will be set to right now. The end date is automatically updated as time passes.

When you are ready, press the big "plus" button to add this tracked time to your time log.

The timer is remembered even when you close Thyme

To prevent losing progress, Thyme automatically remembers if you have a timer running were you to close Thyme before adding the entry to your log. Next time you open up Thyme you'll see the timer is still running.

So it's safe to close Thyme when you're working on your tasks. It does not matter if you power down your computer. The time you started the last timer will be remembered and picked up when you use Thyme again.

File time entry under a project

Thyme allows you to file time under a project. Do so by selecting a project from the projects list in the time adding row.

You can read more about projects on the projects documentation page.

If your project is not yet in the list, you can "quick add" it through this same selection list.

You'll be able to filter out and create project reports based on where you filed your time under. You can also choose to don't put time under a project and it will be available later as "no project".
